ORLANDO,

The County Seat of Orange County, has no
complaint to make against the number of peo-
pie who are going to California. The Regis
tiers Of the thirteen hotels in Orlando show
two visitors to one this season over any past
year.
The fact is, that the vacancy in jackson
sonvile and st. Augustine is not caused by
the mum Der of people who have gone TO Cali
fornia, but by the fact that the great number
of people who are coming TO Florida are find
ing their way to Orlando and other points
South. There are over one hundred thou
sand dollars worth Of brick buildings now
going up in Orlando. Street car tracks are
being laid over the entire city. Water Works
and Electric Lights are IN process Of con-
struction. In fact, Orlando is on the biggest
boom she has ever known.
Statistics show that more property has
changed hands in and around Orlando than
in Brmiu CHAM. Alabama. WATKINS Il CO..
situated next door to First National Bank
who are the leading Real Estate Agents in
South Florida, are constantly busy with their
handsome team showing visitors around, and
claim that they are doing more business than
all the other agencies in the city. They have
made point of taking no land on their books
held at an exorbitant price. They invite an
inspection of their $50 per acre land, situated
three miles from Orlando. They have also
Grst-class pine land, seven miles from Orlan-
do, ut ; 10 per acre. Good building lots in Or
lando at $50. First-class pine land 81 to So
per acre. They have two orange groves that
they guarantee will pay 30 per cent. net on
the investment. In connection with their
Office IS a first cass reading room in which is
kept all the standard English and American
papers. The distinctive features. of this
Agency is that they sell only for commissions
and do not do a SPECULATIVE business.
The phenomenal success Of WATKINS & co.
is also due TO the fact that they always i'm
press upon parties placing land in their hands
The advantage of making quick sale at small
profits. If you should go to Florida do not
fail 10 visit Orlando. If you visit Orlando do
not fail TO visit WATKINS.& co.

Horse stealing week before last, and a
shooting ARRAY last week. Buda has got
her name up. There were a quantity of
''cullud" balls in town lately which were
evidently success in themselves judging
from the noise made at them. The shoot
ing affair was due to one of these which was
held few miles distant A young white
man was attending it little too closely and
was shot by q negro, the bullet lodging be-
hind the breast bone, inficting painful and
perhaps dangerous wound. The negro has
not been heard from.
Mr.. j. J. Williamson, who lately removed
from San Marcos to Lockhart, was in town
last week.
Mr. McGown, of Austin, was in town on
Saturday.
A photograph gallery has been noticed for
some time past near Goforth's drug store.
DIR. Castleberry is putting an addition to
a tenant house of his, and Mr.. Barton has
built in the fiat back of town. The new
building near the railway is a cotton seed
store house belonging to some oil company.
The seed buying company proved failure
at Kyle and San Marcos this year; it does
not look like they would succeed here.
We forgot to mention that DR., Jameson,
our new doctor here. paid a visit to Tennes-
see lately. He was there during the cleo
ton. He says that his family will be on
soon.

Old Maids IN New England.

The Omaha Herald has curious article
upon the subject why there are so many
''old maids" in New England, II bases It's
conclusions on the statistics Of seven gradu-
ating classes in New England school,
which show that out OF 90 graduates az had
married, II had died, and 81 were single,
the last class graduating in 1876 The paper
gives az tho cause of this the fact that most
Of the manageable men leave New En-
gland and do not return, leaving the girls to
state of enforced spinsterhood.
There may be some truth in this. but not
enough to account for the whole fact that 80
large number of New England girls re-
main in state of single blessedness. II is
fact that in no part of the country are
young ladies' 30 well educated and fitted to
become self-supporting as in New England,
and II is also true that in no other section of
the United States are they so independent
pecuniarrily as there. Put these two things
together and they form stronger reason
for limiting the number of marriages than
all other causes combined. The young
lady who has ample means for her own sup
port by inheritance, or has the ability to
provide for her own maintenance In q state
of independence, feels few of the great in
centives to early marriages that influence
women generally to marry. Too many wo-
men marry to secure home, perhaps the
majority do so, but in large proportion Of
cases in New England this incentive does
not exist.
Again, there is in New England more of
that true gentility among women that does
not think it dishonorable to work than any
where else in the country. This is an in
heritance from their rugged, puritan ances-
tors, and hence it is that members of fami-
lies of the highest social and intellectual
standing may be found in the shops in any
New England town earning living when a
western or southern girl, similarly situated,
would be supported in idleness by her par

The November number of Eppincotts
Monthly Magazine opens with q complete
novel by Virginia w. Johnson, entitled The
Terra Gotta Bust"-an art romance, pic
ture of italian life, delicately and graceful
ly painted, and full of poetry and pathos.
The series of Undergraduate sketches of life
in the principal colleges of the United
States is brought to close by r. s.
Rounds "Social Life at Amherst College"
Felix L. Oswald's article, ga Modern Spar
tacus," detailing the adventures and exploits
of bandit, who for several years back has
defied the Mexican authorities and encoun-
tered many thrilling adventures, is bio
graphical sketch of the utmost interest.
Another valuable article is Prof. John
johnson Jr's, 1.-THE School-Boy as a Mi
crocosm," in which the customs and morals
and economic principles of the average
school-boy are shown to reflect those of
semi-civilized and savage periods of the hui
man race. ''The Story of a Stanza," by
John r. TAFT, is one of the bits of literary
autobiography for which this magazine is
famous. Arlo Bates "A Sketch in TIMBER"
is story of unusual power and insight.
The most important of the poems is con-
tributed by Walt Whitman, and is entitled
November Boughs" Excellent verses
are also contributed by Mary Bradley and
and Willis Boyd Allen. The departments
are interesting as usual.
